Monday

Words to the effect that: After I'm done with this, I'll go to Venezuela and be elected President there. I'm polling higher than any politician there. I'll have to learn Spanish but that will be very easy. Language is easy for me.

It was reported that he was "joking" about this. I'd bet the farm he wasn't joking. Venezuela has more oil than Saudi Arabia....Trump can't resist the idea of having that as his own.
